The Symptoms or the Disease

David A. Fox, MD  |  Issue: February 2008  |  February 1, 2008

There are other things that each ACR member can do: participate in our visits to Capitol Hill, call or write your elected representatives in the House and Senate, and contribute to RHEUMPAC. Also, as physician-citizens, make thoughtful choices in November as well as in the remaining primaries and caucuses, with the need to cure HCSD as one of your high-priority issues.

Dr. Fox is president of the ACR. Contact him via e-mail at [email protected].
